Rebecca and Sara

Thank you for your suggestions and support in connection with the ejaculating tube of Vitapointe.

I think of you whenever I look at my lustrous blonde tresses enhanced by the Charles Worthington and Sunsilk products you recommended.

I haven’t tried the extra virgin yet.

I sent an email to Rebecca Addison and Sara Lee customer relations department. I referred them to the postand pointed out that it was second on Google blog search for Sara Lee and first for Vitapointe.Over the next few days I had lots of hits from Sara Lee.Rebecca still hasn’t replied but someone called Lois Sharma wrote back. She told me that Rebecca was a highly valued member of her team who had received many testimonials from *satisfied customers*.The fault was caused by a *rare technical problem with the crimping machine*.She then said would I accept ten quid and the dry cleaning bills paid in full.

Well that’s a bit more like it .. As you said ‘The power of the blog!’

I tried to persuade Rebecca to post a comment - but she must be shy. I still haven’t heard from her

I’m a trifle puzzled by the advert above. I know A is for apple so P is for pomme. But what is H for? That little chap in the Tommy Cooper hat looks like he’s strong - so is it F for Fort? Why is that fish sitting on that woman’s head? And what’s it all got to do with Vitapointe?

Perhaps Rebecca will congratulate me. It’s my blogging birthday tomorrow. Yes - it’s ONE year since I started. I believe that bonfires are to be lit all across the country in celebration.KAZ

Murph: As well as being DOGmatic you are also becoming very Enigmatic. In other words I haven’t the foggiest what you are on about.However I would love to share the 10 quid - How's abowt some doggy chocs?

Thanks Lubin! You seem very relaxed about it all. I'll wait until I can 'snatch the pebble from your hand'.

What on earth are the initials for on the Vitapointe ad? It's extra difficult in French, but F might be Fort, G might be Glossy, only that's English, H could be Hairy if those are peaches, and it was English, M must be something to do with the Mer, and S.. in a jug - must be Saucy.No, that's English as well.But it does say it's Beautiful like the horses of Mama, who uses Vitapointe.

I thought a crimping machine was one of those things that gave your hair that early eighties "sheep with an electric shock" look. Unless you were poor, like me, and just dried your hair with it tied up in little plaits (very time consuming, that).

Stitchwort: Ah I see. I hadn’t read the bit about the ‘cheveux de maman.’ I remember all my class sniggering when we discovered that the French said 'hairs' instead of 'hair' and that they called it a horse. I should apologise to Murph - but I won’t.

Cheers Betty: It was - but to get the full effect you had to use it with wet hands in the bath. And stick it in your ear.

Geoff: You are right you can tell by the way he’s holding his hands. Thanks - I hope to be still at it next year.

Thanks MJ - Please keep visiting.

AnX: Thanks for trying. I think it must be to do with the comme. As in 'Cunning comme un fox'. As if life hasn't got enough problems
